• I declare that this government is no longer a constitutional and moral form of government. I will deal with it, and I will obey its laws, and I will support it when it is defending our country from foreign and domestic enemies. I will vote in its elections and participate in its political debates. But I will never accept it. I aim at a restoration of constitutional and moral order.

• Pero creo que el pueblo estadounidense espera de nosotros algo más que gritos de indignación y ataques. Los tiempos son demasiado graves, el reto demasiado urgente y lo que está en juego demasiado alto para permitir las pasiones habituales del debate político. No estamos aquí para maldecir la oscuridad, sino para encender la vela que puede guiarnos a través de esa oscuridad hacia un futuro seguro y cuerdo. Como dijo Winston Churchill al tomar posesión de su cargo hace unos veinte años: si abrimos una querella entre el presente y el pasado, correremos el riesgo de perder el futuro.

• Estoy convencido de que siempre que exageramos o demonizamos, simplificamos o exageramos nuestros argumentos, perdemos. Siempre que simplificamos el debate político, perdemos. Porque es precisamente la búsqueda de la pureza ideológica, la rígida ortodoxia y la pura previsibilidad de nuestro debate político actual lo que nos impide encontrar nuevas formas de afrontar los retos a los que nos enfrentamos.

• Conventional wisdom suggests the primary motivator for entrepreneurs is money or wealth creation and, in fact, much of the political debate tends to center around what kind of tax or regulatory policy changes will turn corporate suits into small business adventurers overnight.

• Se ha hablado de revocar la nacionalidad francesa a algunas personas. Por ello, he decidido solicitar la nacionalidad, lo que en cierto modo pone de manifiesto las contradicciones de este proyecto de ley que establece la pérdida de la nacionalidad francesa exclusivamente a las personas que posean la doble nacionalidad. Con esta solicitud, me sitúo en medio del debate político francés y desacredito todo lo que se pueda decir en mi contra sobre este asunto.

• I think that political parties are fuelling this fear in order to create divisions. The more we bring up fear, the more we neglect real political issues. Political debate in France is crumbling since every single issue is brought to Islam now.

• The United States is in the midst of many spirited political debates about national priorities and public spending... However, we have found that science is an area where both political parties can find common ground, and in which political change does not necessarily create discontinuities.

• Even as the government dominates the headlines, private entrepreneurs are busy every day working to improve products and services that improve our lives. They do it without taxing us or regulating us, or making us suffer through tedious elections or political debates. They make their products and offer them to us in a way that pleases the consuming public the most. We can choose whether we want them or not.

• En India tenemos una derecha tan despiadada y tan abiertamente perversa, que es el partido Baratiya Janata (BJP), y luego tenemos el partido del Congreso, que hace cosas casi peores, pero lo hace de noche. Y la gente siente que las únicas opciones que tiene son votar por esto o por aquello. Y lo que quiero decir es que, votes a quien votes, no tiene por qué consumir todo el oxígeno del debate político.

• I feel vulnerable when my ego is threatened - if I get jealous of another band's good time slot at a big festival, if I'm about to get clobbered in a political debate, if I'm trying to impress someone I have a crush on. It's the opposite of openness, letting go, allowing deep feelings to express themselves. For me, that comes from playing music and from kissing.

• Él [Hugo Chávez] puso la pobreza en el centro del debate político. Con razón, dada la inmensa desigualdad y pobreza del país. Hizo grandes inversiones en programas sociales como alfabetización, clínicas de salud y educación. Promovió la cultura indígena de Venezuela e instó a sus compatriotas a enorgullecerse de su historia precolombina. Pidió a Estados Unidos que dejara de tratar a Latinoamérica como su patio trasero.
